State Representative MI District 26 🌹, Teacher, Education and Union Activist, #RedForEd Organizer.
The moment our Resolution was formally read into the Michigan House.

For more than two years, the world has watched a livestreamed genocide.What makes that possible is American-supplied weapons.

Michigan taxpayers have contributed over $420 million to the genocide since 2023.

While this “deal” is being announced, I want to make it clear that there are 149 people that get to make this decision not 3.

We haven't been provided the details.

I look forward to analyzing the budget once it is provided to us.

Standing in solidarity with the Michigan Education Association and AFT Michigan demanding that schools are fully funded and the budget is passed on time!

We need to invest in public education not make cuts.

Our government helps fund Israel’s genocide in Gaza. This is immoral & illegal. Electeds & orgs must send a message to MI’s Senators and Reps: demand no more weapons for Israel, allow aid in Gaza, and restore visas for Palestinians.

$40 Billion to one company.

$6.24 Billion in state tax breaks.
$18 Billion in local tax breaks.
$16 Billion in federal tax breaks.

With the State portion alone we could buy the Detroit Lions.

We don't have enough money for clean water, fully funded schools, or drivable roads.

Yet Michigan’s economic development office offered more than $6 BILLION in corporate handouts to ONE single company, and yet Sandisk still didn't come.

Duggan does not have our interests at heart. Just look to his donors.

“A Metro Times analysis of Duggan’s fundraising shows a sizable share comes from donors of President Donald Trump, GOP party leaders, and conservative power brokers with vested interests in state policy.”

Washington D/C has a 30 year low in violent crime.

Federal Republicans just gave one of the largest tax cuts to the rich in US History.

Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer and the MEDC offered over $6 BILLION to a single corporation.

This is Oligarchy.

Today, Trump’s bill passed the Senate. If it passes in the House it would cut $930B from Medicaid over the next decade. This bill also makes major cuts to SNAP (food stamp) benefits. We are in the middle of budget season in Lansing. (1/2)

Our fascist president taking an illegal act of war without congressional approval. We have to condemn this.

Do we still live in a congressional republic?

The American people do not want to be dragged into another endless war.

We continue to call for an end to the Genocide in Gaza.

We cannot allow this injustice to fall out of the zeitgeist.

Our Resolution calling on Trump to be impeached. We turned it in last Thursday, should be read in today.

“It is unthinkable that a president would
send innocent people to a foreign country’s prison known for its human rights violations.”

Sad day in the Michigan House.

With a 66-43 vote HR 40 passed today. This resolution calls on the Michigan High School Athletic Association to adopt Donald Trump’s executive order banning trans girls from playing sports.

I was proud to vote no and stand with the trans community.
